signedUpAt := time.Unix(0, int64(signUpResponse.OK.User.TimeJoined))
this line is causing db to record a 1970 date
You’re seeing a 1970 date because time.Unix(0, int64(signUpResponse.OK.User.TimeJoined))
interprets TimeJoined
as nanoseconds since epoch, but it’s probably in seconds or milliseconds.
time.Unix(sec, nsec)
expects first arg in seconds, second arg in nanoseconds.0
for seconds, and putting all of TimeJoined
in nanoseconds — likely wrong.signedUpAt := time.Unix(int64(signUpResponse.OK.User.TimeJoined), 0)
signedUpAt := time.UnixMilli(int64(signUpResponse.OK.User.TimeJoined))
Your current line would be fine.
Check the docs or print the raw value of signUpResponse.OK.User.TimeJoined
to confirm.
Want help interpreting a sample value of TimeJoined
?
since epoch?
Yes — time.Unix
, time.UnixMilli
, etc., interpret values as time since the Unix epoch, which is:
January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC
So:
time.Unix(0, 0)
→ 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z
TimeJoined = 1714440000
, and it’s in seconds, then:time.Unix(1714440000, 0)
// → 2024-04-30T00:00:00Z
time.UnixMilli(1714440000000)
// → 2024-04-30T00:00:00Z
Print TimeJoined
and see if the digits match a recent date in seconds (10 digits) or millis (13 digits). Want to verify a value?

Yes, these functions can be tested — but not directly in isolation without mocking the razorpay.Client
.
rg.client.Order.Create
and rg.client.Order.Fetch
talk to the external Razorpay API.Wrap razorpay.Client
(or at least Order
) in a mockable interface.
type RazorpayOrderClient interface {
Create(data map[string]interface{}, options map[string]interface{}) (map[string]interface{}, error)
Fetch(id string, data, options map[string]interface{}) (map[string]interface{}, error)
}
type RazorpayGateway struct {
orderClient RazorpayOrderClient
}
func NewRazorpayGateway() *RazorpayGateway {
client := razorpay.NewClient(config.GetConfig().RazorpayKeyID, config.GetConfig().RazorpayKeySecret)
return &RazorpayGateway{orderClient: client.Order}
}
You can use testify/mock
, or a hand-written fake:
type mockOrderClient struct {
mock.Mock
}
func (m *mockOrderClient) Create(data map[string]interface{}, options map[string]interface{}) (map[string]interface{}, error) {
args := m.Called(data, options)
return args.Get(0).(map[string]interface{}), args.Error(1)
}
func (m *mockOrderClient) Fetch(id string, data, options map[string]interface{}) (map[string]interface{}, error) {
args := m.Called(id, data, options)
return args.Get(0).(map[string]interface{}), args.Error(1)
}
Then you can write table-driven tests with expected input/output and set up .On(...)
expectations.

yes, using assert only no require

Need the same structure for CreateOrder

after my changes here is the new test file package payment
import ( “context” “errors” “github.com/razorpay/razorpay-go” “github.com/stretchr/testify/assert” “github.com/stretchr/testify/mock” “testing” )

ctx := context.Background()

t.Run(tt.name, func(t *testing.T) {

mockClient.

} }
cannot use mockClient (variable of type *mockOrderClient) as *razorpay.Client value in argument to setupTest compiler (IncompatibleAssign) for this line : rg := setupTest(mockClient)
You’re getting the error because setupTest
expects a *razorpay.Client
, but you’re passing in *mockOrderClient
, which is just a mock for the .Order
field.
You’re still tightly coupling RazorpayGateway
to the concrete razorpay.Client
, which can’t be easily mocked — you need to decouple it to allow testing.
Refactor RazorpayGateway
to depend only on the Order
client.
type RazorpayOrderClient interface {
Create(data map[string]interface{}, options map[string]interface{}) (map[string]interface{}, error)
Fetch(id string, data, options map[string]interface{}) (map[string]interface{}, error)
}
type RazorpayGateway struct {
orderClient RazorpayOrderClient
}
func NewRazorpayGateway() *RazorpayGateway {
client := razorpay.NewClient(config.GetConfig().RazorpayKeyID, config.GetConfig().RazorpayKeySecret)
return &RazorpayGateway{orderClient: client.Order}
}
func (rg *RazorpayGateway) VerifyPayment(ctx context.Context, orderID string) (bool, error) {
if orderID == "" {
return false, errors.New("order ID cannot be empty")
}
order, err := rg.orderClient.Fetch(orderID, nil, nil)
// ...
func setupTest(orderClient RazorpayOrderClient) *RazorpayGateway {
return &RazorpayGateway{
orderClient: orderClient,
}
}
Then your mockOrderClient
fits perfectly, and the test compiles.
This change also helps isolate the Razorpay dependency for testing and future replacement. Want the same pattern applied to CreateOrder
tests?
package payment
import ( “context” “errors” “github.com/razorpay/razorpay-go” “github.com/stretchr/testify/assert” “github.com/stretchr/testify/mock” “testing” )

The test crashes because you’re calling .Fetch()
on rg.client.Order
, but client
is nil
. This line in your setupTest
confirms it:
var client *razorpay.Client // <- this is nil
Then inside VerifyPayment
you’re doing:
order, err := rg.client.Order.Fetch(orderID, nil, nil)
That’s a nil pointer dereference — hence the SIGSEGV.
You need to do what we discussed earlier: abstract the Order dependency, so you can inject your mock cleanly.
type RazorpayOrderClient interface {
Create(data map[string]interface{}, options map[string]interface{}) (map[string]interface{}, error)
Fetch(id string, data, options map[string]interface{}) (map[string]interface{}, error)
}
type RazorpayGateway struct {
orderClient RazorpayOrderClient
}
order, err := rg.orderClient.Fetch(orderID, nil, nil)
func NewRazorpayGateway() *RazorpayGateway {
client := razorpay.NewClient(config.GetConfig().RazorpayKeyID, config.GetConfig().RazorpayKeySecret)
return &RazorpayGateway{orderClient: client.Order}
}
type mockOrderClient struct {
mock.Mock
}
func (m *mockOrderClient) Create(data map[string]interface{}, options map[string]interface{}) (map[string]interface{}, error) {
args := m.Called(data, options)
return args.Get(0).(map[string]interface{}), args.Error(1)
}
func (m *mockOrderClient) Fetch(id string, data, options map[string]interface{}) (map[string]interface{}, error) {
args := m.Called(id, data, options)
return args.Get(0).(map[string]interface{}), args.Error(1)
}
func setupTest(orderClient RazorpayOrderClient) *RazorpayGateway {
return &RazorpayGateway{orderClient: orderClient}
}
Then change the line in the test:
rg := setupTest(mockClient)
This isolates the dependency and allows mocking correctly. Want me to rewrite the entire test file with this structure?
start again, this is the payment gateway interface package payment

VerifyPayment
in isolation without spinning up a real razorpay.Client
.testableRazorpayGateway
mirrors the original RazorpayGateway
but takes a mock.CreateOrder
.Would you like this refactored further to eliminate the testableRazorpayGateway
wrapper and instead inject the dependency directly into the real RazorpayGateway
?
this is another impl of the same interface, provide tests for this
Please provide the other implementation of the PaymentGateway
interface you’d like me to write tests for. I can’t generate the tests without seeing the implementation details — particularly which gateway or logic it’s using and how it behaves internally.
Can you paste the full source code of the second implementation?

⚠️ You must disable the race detector (go test -race
) when using monkey
, as it uses unsafe
.
Want a safer alternative using an interface adapter pattern for Stripe?
i’m not monkey patching anything, work with what you have
Understood. Since stripe-go
uses global functions (paymentintent.New
, paymentintent.Get
, etc.), and you don’t want monkey patching, the only clean, testable path is inversion of control: abstract the Stripe SDK behind interfaces, inject those into StripeGateway
, and mock them in tests.

.Want to apply this same pattern to your RazorpayGateway
too?
i want it done without refactoring StripeGateway , create all mocks in the test file itself
Got it. Since you want to test StripeGateway
as-is, without refactoring and without monkey patching, the only viable approach is to write integration-style tests that mock HTTP requests at the network level.
To do that, we’ll use net/http/httptest
and the stripe-go
SDK’s ability to override the backend via stripe.SetBackend
. This is the only supported non-invasive mocking route for stripe-go
.

stripe-go
SDK uses an internal HTTP backend abstraction (stripe.SetBackend
).httptest.Server
to simulate Stripe’s API responses.StripeGateway
, no monkey patching, and no interface wrapping.Let me know if you also want negative test cases (error responses, 500s, etc.).
“github.com/stripe/stripe-go/v72/backend” does not exist anymore
To effectively test the StripeGateway
implementation without modifying its structure or using monkey patching, you can employ dependency injection by setting a custom backend in the Stripe SDK. This approach allows you to intercept and mock API calls made by the SDK. Here’s how you can achieve this:
Define a mock backend that implements the necessary methods of the Stripe backend interface. This mock will intercept calls to the Stripe API and return predefined responses.
package payment
import (
"bytes"
"context"
"errors"
"testing"
"github.com/stripe/stripe-go/v72"
"github.com/stripe/stripe-go/v72/form"
"github.com/stretchr/testify/assert"
)
// mockBackend implements stripe.Backend interface
type mockBackend struct {
callFunc func(method, path, key string, params stripe.ParamsContainer, v stripe.LastResponseSetter) error
}
func (m *mockBackend) Call(method, path, key string, params stripe.ParamsContainer, v stripe.LastResponseSetter) error {
return m.callFunc(method, path, key, params, v)
}
func (m *mockBackend) CallRaw(method, path, key string, body *form.Values, params *stripe.Params, v stripe.LastResponseSetter) error {
return nil
}
func (m *mockBackend) CallMultipart(method, path, key, boundary string, body *bytes.Buffer, params *stripe.Params, v stripe.LastResponseSetter) error {
return nil
}
func (m *mockBackend) SetMaxNetworkRetries(maxNetworkRetries int) {}
func (m *mockBackend) SetHTTPClient(client stripe.HTTPClient) {}
func (m *mockBackend) SetAppInfo(info *stripe.AppInfo) {}
In your test functions, inject the mockBackend
into the Stripe SDK before invoking the methods of StripeGateway
. This setup ensures that all API calls made during the test are intercepted by your mock.
func TestStripeGateway_CreateOrder(t *testing.T) {
// Set up the mock backend
mock := &mockBackend{
callFunc: func(method, path, key string, params stripe.ParamsContainer, v stripe.LastResponseSetter) error {
// Simulate a successful PaymentIntent creation
if pi, ok := v.(*stripe.PaymentIntent); ok {
pi.ID = "pi_test_123"
pi.ClientSecret = "secret_test_123"
return nil
}
return errors.New("unexpected type")
},
}
stripe.SetBackend("api", mock)
// Initialize the gateway
gateway := &StripeGateway{}
// Call CreateOrder
orderID, clientSecret, err := gateway.CreateOrder(context.Background(), 1000, "usd", map[string]string{"key": "value"})
// Assertions
assert.NoError(t, err)
assert.Equal(t, "pi_test_123", orderID)
assert.Equal(t, "secret_test_123", clientSecret)
}
func TestStripeGateway_VerifyPayment(t *testing.T) {
// Set up the mock backend
mock := &mockBackend{
callFunc: func(method, path, key string, params stripe.ParamsContainer, v stripe.LastResponseSetter) error {
// Simulate a successful PaymentIntent retrieval
if pi, ok := v.(*stripe.PaymentIntent); ok {
pi.Status = stripe.PaymentIntentStatusSucceeded
return nil
}
return errors.New("unexpected type")
},
}
stripe.SetBackend("api", mock)
// Initialize the gateway
gateway := &StripeGateway{}
// Call VerifyPayment
ok, err := gateway.VerifyPayment(context.Background(), "pi_test_123")
// Assertions
assert.NoError(t, err)
assert.True(t, ok)
}
func TestStripeGateway_CancelPayment(t *testing.T) {
// Set up the mock backend
mock := &mockBackend{
callFunc: func(method, path, key string, params stripe.ParamsContainer, v stripe.LastResponseSetter) error {
// Simulate a successful PaymentIntent cancellation
if pi, ok := v.(*stripe.PaymentIntent); ok {
pi.Status = stripe.PaymentIntentStatusCanceled
return nil
}
return errors.New("unexpected type")
},
}
stripe.SetBackend("api", mock)
// Initialize the gateway
gateway := &StripeGateway{}
// Call CancelPayment
ok, err := gateway.CancelPayment(context.Background(), "pi_test_123")
// Assertions
assert.NoError(t, err)
assert.True(t, ok)
}
stripe.SetBackend
function sets the backend globally, which might lead to race conditions if tests are run in parallel. Ensure that tests modifying the backend are run sequentially or reset the backend after each test.By following this approach, you can effectively test the StripeGateway
implementation without altering its structure or relying on monkey patching.
Sources
stripe.SetBackend(“api”, mock) cannot use mock (variable of type *mockBackend) as stripe.Backend value in argument to stripe.SetBackend: *mockBackend does not implement stripe.Backend (missing method CallStreaming)
You’re correct — since Stripe v72.11.0+, the stripe.Backend
interface includes the CallStreaming
method. Your mockBackend
is missing that, which is why stripe.SetBackend("api", mock)
fails.
Here’s a complete, corrected test setup with a fully implemented mock that satisfies the stripe.Backend
interface without modifying StripeGateway.
